So I made the vital error of updating my TWW S3 dungeon Weakaura pack in a +13 Floodgate RESI key and on the first pack of the dungeon I realised the trash timers had reset and were blocking my party frames. I typed for them to give me 10 seconds to fix it as I could not see what I was doing and the tank died. Quickly go again you would think as its 10 steps from the entrance but no, abuse followed.
I get called a “clown” and “You type during pull are you SRS?!”
Typically I let these things go and don’t let them annoy me or ruin my day but what a thankless and demoralising role playing a healer is in this game. You can outplay everything, end the dungeon with 50+ dispels/ interrupts whilst babysitting players that are watching anime on their second monitor whilst face tanking every mechanic but the second you have a small issue then this is the attitude you face.
It’s one of a handful of keys in roughly 100+ I did since the season started that wasn’t timed or had to disband. I say disband because they all just stood at the entrance telling each other to kick me so I left and used the ignore feature.
Especially since the key wasn’t downgraded and we were not 1 minute into the dungeon I can’t see the reason for this overreaction. Bleh!
Yeah that’s how sweats react in pvp and pve rated content, its pathetic…
Imagine if they get fired irl job for making a mistake once, that’s if they even have one…
This game has the second worst community to league of legends
Yeh, I went through a few higher keys with a couple of my friends and when the PUGs started to abuse a PUG mage for not using BL, someone in my discord said that it was quite normal at that level.
But I’m quite happily moving along about 2 key levels below you, and everyone is really friendly.
My recommendation is to slow down and let the toxic boys move ahead.
To be honest i returned to wow on bra and started doing mythics till now. The moments that i had a toxic group is not that high for the content i have done.
If you are friendly and you don’t do stupid stuff nobody is gonna bully you
I mean you joined a push key unprepared. It’s annoying.
People have to deal with all these sba bots and everything and then you come around the corner and have your UI not fixed during the pull.
I think if you communicated it properly, it would be all good. You just don’t know how many people they had to deal with who joined a push key unprepared, you might be number 25 in the last 30 minutes. At some point it’s just annoying af.
Yes I updated it before I joined the group and was unaware it would reset the position of the bars I had originally being working with. I tried to raise it to their attention to fix it as it won’t let you do it in combat.
We were down the ramp and gathered at the first pack of mobs. It was one minute in and if abuse hadn’t come flying in I would have apologised and gone again. If you think this is normal behaviour and reaction to someone in a video game I pity you.
I am not saying it’s normal behaviour but you also gotta see the other side. You might be like the fifth guy in few minutes who doesn’t have his crap together and it’s annoying for the grp if they wanna push.
I think it’s a valid expectation for the grp to invite someone who is not testing his UI in a push key.
You updated it and you joined a dungeon. For me that’s testing.
If I change anything with my addons or WA, I go any irrelevant content and test it first.
You didn’t do that but you expect the group the behave a certain way because your decisions lead to an issue in the key.
Sure, we could argue it was a resi key (if that’s true at all) and what not but that’s besides the point. You joined a push key, you have to be prepared. It’s kinda simple.
It’s everywhere.
What is needed are strong user moderation tools.
If I block a guy, I want him gone from my games and my chat. Gone from the games to the furthest extent, we should only be randomed together if there’s no other choice.
There’s no redemption here, these people will never redeem; no change. Exclusion is the only answer. And then change will come, slowly, as it dawns on people that if they blow up in someone’s face they will never play with that person again. Doing it over and over and over leaves you playing with yourself.
It makes perfect sense in the real world: No one hangs out with a yelling idiot. So it applies here too.
